why when the international space station is only 250miles away does it take at least 4 hours to get there?

Question

I’m going to be very disappointed if the rockets top out at 65mph.

You should try Kerbal Space Program. I had about 100 hours into the game, largely toying with builds, before attempting docking with a satellite.

I had landed on the ‘moon’ and even other planets before. Which was much easier due to their gravity.

The process of matching up with a satellite is *crazy*. I had to watch several youtube videos to understand how to do it. And it was so tedious that I only ever did it once.
